    Ansley Almonor to visit

    Considering he is a quality bench player that shoots the ball well, he would seem to be a great pickup. We have to be realistic that starters are not going to want to come to sit the bench. We also need to get used to roster building that is built on scheme and strengths (a 4 that can come off...

    Cal is most likely gone to Texas this season - and here's why

    I don't totally buy that Texas would want him despite the class he would be able to bring him in next year and I really don't think that Cal would take a fairly substantial pay cut. I can't imagine the Texas AD watching his current performance and think, he is definitely worth matching his 9...

    Going to take a Donovan or Pitino for this rebuild!

    Thank you, in the age of the transfer portal a competent coach would field a good team next year. No doubt a better product than what we are seeing now.

    Why was platooning in 2015 so bad for the program?

    I believe trying to force Skal to be a back to the basket big the next season when it was obvious that it would not work, and then continuing to play bigs and forwards in that fashion, ultimately hurt recruiting much more than platooning. I never bought into platooning playing much of a factor...

    Ironic Sharpe ended up a Trail Blazer

    He is definitely a trailblazer for none and dones at UK. In a couple of years we will have five walk on starters and six top 10 draft picks that spend the semester on the bench but will set a new first round record for draft picks after the season! 🙃

    Do you like to see other SEC schools do well in the NCAA tournament?

    I usually don’t actively root against any but don’t root for them either, same with football. Every other SEC fan base seems to hope we lose in the tournament so I never understood why UK fans pull for other teams in the NCAA, bowl games, or CFP.

    Allen now shooting 19% from three. Is the Allen experiment officially over?

    I don't disagree that he has to make shots period. I just wish he could play the role he is, end of bench player, without all the unnecessary noise.

    Allen now shooting 19% from three. Is the Allen experiment officially over?

    When you play only a r When you only play a few minutes a game, which is very understandable considering how others are playing, and you know that your playing time is a huge debate throughout the state; I can only imagine how tight he gets knowing his opportunities are very limited to make...

    Anyone on this board now regret their User Name?

    Yes, I just wanted to sign up and read and didn't post for years, so I used a combination of my initials and last name and now have this boring and confusing username 🙂

    When was the Honeymoon over for you?

    There were several times it seemed to be the case but really knew when the Zion, Barrett team waxed us. You could tell the days of elite of the elite talent at UK had passed and likely teams that would be top caliber from game one of the season as well.

    The embarrassment of Alabama emptying the bench in Rupp.

    Redistribution of wealth in the SEC this year.

    Who did you (we) agonize over that didnt pan out?

    College basketball rankings: The most overrated and underrated teams in the preseason AP Top 25 poll

    And the fact that they are ranked high every year mostly based on their recruiting class and almost always live up to their ranking.
